Dissatisfied with the life of the intelligentsia, the poet Daryalsky joins a rural mystic sect, the Silver Doves. The locals,
in particular the peasant woman Matryona, are fascinated by the dashing stranger. Daryalsky is in turn taken in by the Doves'
intimacy with the mystical and spiritual--and by Matryona. Under the influence of Kudeyarov, the ruthless cult leader, Daryalsky
is used in a bid to produce a sacred child. But in time the poet disappoints the Doves and must face their suspicions and
jealousies--and his own inevitable dire fate

First published in Russian in 1921 and never translated, Audrey Bely's long narrative poem--considered to be one of the great
achievements of Russian Modernism--is translated to English here. A poet, critic, philosopher, and novelist, Bely was a leading
figure among the Russian Symbolists, and The First Encounter is thought to be his greatest work in verse. The poem is autobiographical
and reflects turn of-the-century Moscow with its mixture of entrenched positivism and new spiritualistic trends, cultural
variety and the upheaval of the time. Originally published in 1979. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand
technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
These paperback editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback editions.
The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands
of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905

"Taking place over a short, turbulent period in 1905, Petersburg is a colourful evocation of Russia's capital - a kaleidoscope
of images and impressions, an eastern window on the west, a symbol of the ambiguities and paradoxes of the Russian character.
History, culture and politics are blended and juxtaposed; weather reports, current news, fashions and psychology jostle together
with people from Petersburg society in an exhilarating search for the identity of a city and, ultimately, Russia itself."--BOOK
